Calculating upper and lower bound
Suppose there is a function
$ f(x)= 19n^2/5n +1-n $
I want to calculate upper and lower bound. But I had this confusion that whether I have to calculate in terms of n^2? Because dominating term is n^2
or If I solve the above equation as $ f(x)= 19n/5 +1-n $ (canceling n in 1st term) then what? Then I have to calculate c1 and c2 in terms of n? because that will be the dominating term.
So, Kindly tell me that in which term do I have to calculate c1 and c2 i.e n or n^2?? Can I cancel n in $ 19n^2/5n $ or not? What will be its asymptotic form? $ f(n)∈Θ(n^2) $ or $ f(n)∈Θ(n) $ ?

$dfrac{19n^2}{5n}=dfrac{19n}{5}$, you can use either assuming your function is $f(n)=dfrac{19n^2}{5n}+1-n$.

@YadatiKiran What will be its asymptotic form? f(n)∈Θ(n2) or f(n)∈Θ(n) ?

Yes. Its asymptotic form will be a function of $n$ in its least possible exponent.

$dfrac{19n^2}{5n}=dfrac{19n}{5}$, you can use either assuming your function is $f(n)=dfrac{19n^2}{5n}+1-n$.
